Default New Lift?

So I have made a contact over at Truxxx / www.truxxx.com (Very nice people by the way) I was asking them about the possibility of manufacturing torsion keys for the 2nd Generation dakota. Well good news we can make it happen all we need to do is show them that their is a Great interest in this product coming to the market and they will start the R & D.

A little about Torsion Key Lifts:
A re-indexed torsion key changes the location that the torsion spring mounts at without changing the spring tension. Hence you will retain the factory ride quality, if you choose not to crank them. Without cranking your torsion bars you will receive 2" of lift with them cranked you could get 4+" of lift.
So if you are interested please just keep this thread going and ill see what i can do.
Thanks,
David

Whatcha got for the rear end? And the rest of the front suspension geometry? If you put the keys in and crank them to 4" total lift, will there be any droop left in the suspension, or will you be at full droop just sitting there? You don't want to over-extend your shocks or CV joints. I'm just suspicious of budget lifts as there is always a drawback. If it increases travel and doesn't have negative effects I'm interested, but there's a reason that the only other 00+ lift runs ~$1500 parts only.
